A virtual evolved packet core (vEPC) is a framework that is used to converge voice and data processing and is implemented by network functions virtualization (NFV) for virtualizing the functions of an Evolved Packet Core (EPC). vEPC can also lower capex and opex by reducing reliance on specialized hardware while speeding service delivery. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected every industry including telecommunications and IT. However, the work flexibility provided by employers to avoid physical contact during the pandemic has provided a stream of opportunity for companies to invest in developing network solutions. Highly secure solutions supporting large data files have gained importance during the pandemic, hence, helping the growth of the market.
The global virtualized evolved packet core (vEPC) market is segmented on the basis of offering, deployment, application, organization size, network type, and by end users. Based on end users segment, the market is further divided into telecom operators, enterprises, and businesses. The enterprises segment is anticipated to hold largest market size in value and is estimated to grow at a notable CAGR over the forecast period. Enterprises are undergoing digital transformation across different industries implementing new technologies to develop new solutions. The growth of the segment can be majorly attributed to improving service delivery, increase in operational efficiency, reduction in cost, and rising customer expectations for better services.
